Castell Son Claret
mallorca, spain · ★★★★★
O veredicto
Vale a pena para sua lua de mel?
Castell Son Claret is the only proper castle hotel in Mallorca — a 13th-century fortified manor at the foot of the Tramuntana mountains near Es Capdellà, set on a 326-hectare private estate of olive groves, almond trees, and Mediterranean pine forest, with 41 rooms split between the original castle and a discreet 2013 spa wing. The current owner, Klaus-Michael Kühne (German shipping magnate, also behind Burj Al Arab investments), spent €40 million on a meticulous restoration that preserved the castle's 800-year stone bones while inserting Michelin-starred Sa Clastra by Fernando Pérez Arellano, a 1,500 sqm spa, three pools, and a helipad. The combination of genuine castle architecture, vast private grounds, serious dining, and Tramuntana setting creates an experience that is rare in the Mediterranean — closer in feeling to a Tuscan estate than a typical Mallorca resort, but with the island's mountain drama and 25-minute access to Palma.

Em resumo
Recomendação de quarto
Qual quarto reservar
A Premium Suite in the castle's original tower is the honeymoon room — vaulted ceilings, a four-poster bed under the original beams, a deep stone tub, and a private terrace overlooking the estate's olive groves to the Tramuntana foothills. For ultimate honeymoon splurge, the Olivera Suite is the property's largest at 110 sqm with a private garden and outdoor jacuzzi. The Deluxe rooms in the modern spa wing are beautifully designed but lack the castle's atmosphere — for first-time visitors, the castle wing is essential.

Dia a dia
Seu roteiro de lua de mel de 7 noites
Arrival at the Castle
Palma airport is 25 minutes from Es Capdellà. The drive up the long estate avenue past olive groves to the castle gate is the kind of approach that resets the nervous system. Settle into your Premium Suite, walk the formal gardens, and order an aperitivo on the castle terrace as the sun drops behind the Tramuntana.
Estate Day & Sa Clastra
A full day on the estate — morning yoga on the herb garden lawn, swim in the secluded lower pool surrounded by old olive trees, lunch at the casual Olivera restaurant on the castle patio, and an afternoon hike to the estate's medieval watchtower. Dinner at Sa Clastra — Fernando Pérez Arellano's one-Michelin-star tasting menu in the castle's vaulted dining hall.
Deià & the Tramuntana
A 45-minute drive north into the Tramuntana — coffee at Valldemossa, the cliff-edge village walk in Deià, lunch at the Belmond La Residencia's El Olivo terrace, and an afternoon swim at Cala Deià (the rocky cove below the village). Return via the Sa Calobra coastal road — one of the great Mediterranean drives.
Boat Day from Port d'Andratx
Port d'Andratx is 20 minutes from Castell Son Claret — Mallorca's most discreet marina. Charter a small boat for a day along the south-west coast: Sa Dragonera nature reserve, the hidden coves of Cala Egos, lunch anchored off Camp de Mar. The water clarity along this coast is the island's best. Return for a long aperitivo on the castle terrace.
Spa Day
A complete day at the 1,500 sqm spa — couples treatment in the Tramuntana-stone hammam suite, hydrotherapy circuit, long lunch in your robes at the spa restaurant. Sunset cocktails at the castle bar, then dinner at Olivera under the patio's old olive tree.
Palma & Bellver Castle
A 25-minute drive into Palma. Cathedral La Seu, lunch at Marc Fosh (Michelin-starred), an afternoon at Bellver Castle (Mallorca's other 13th-century castle, with panoramic city views), and shopping in the Born. Return to Castell Son Claret for a final dinner at Sa Clastra.
Olive Grove Morning & Departure
Final breakfast on the castle terrace, a slow walk through the estate's olive groves, and the 25-minute transfer to Palma. Castell Son Claret is the rare hotel where guests routinely extend stays.
Avaliação honesta
O que saber antes de reservar
Castell Son Claret is inland — there is no beach on the estate and sea access requires a 20-minute drive to Port d'Andratx or Camp de Mar. Couples wanting beach-from-hotel access should consider Hospes Maricel or Park Hyatt Mallorca.
Sa Clastra restaurant (one Michelin star) operates with limited covers and closes Mondays and Tuesdays; honeymoon couples should book the tasting menu at the time of room reservation.
The property is large (41 rooms across a 326-hectare estate) but the castle wing has only 12 rooms — these are the rooms you want, and they book 4–6 months ahead for high season.

FAQ
Perguntas frequentes
Good for honeymooners?
Castell Son Claret is among the Mediterranean's most distinctive honeymoon properties — a real 13th-century castle with one-Michelin-star dining, vast private grounds, and Tramuntana setting. Couples who appreciate architectural history, serious food, and quiet luxury over beach-front access will find it remarkable.
Best time to visit?
April–June and September–October are ideal — warm enough for pool and estate walks, cool enough for hiking in the Tramuntana, almond blossom in February. The hotel closes briefly mid-November to mid-February; opening dates vary year to year.
Book in advance?
Castle-wing Premium Suites need 4–6 months for July/August; the Olivera Suite books a year ahead for summer. Spa-wing Deluxe rooms have more flexibility but the castle atmosphere is the reason to stay.
Adults-only?
No — children are welcome and there is a small kids programme in summer. The castle setting and Michelin dining mean the property skews heavily adult; honeymoon couples will find quiet corners easily.
Best room type?
A Premium Suite in the castle's original tower — vaulted ceilings, four-poster bed, and Tramuntana-facing terrace. For ultimate splurge, the Olivera Suite at 110 sqm has private garden and outdoor jacuzzi.
How to get there?
Palma de Mallorca (PMI) is 25 minutes by car to Es Capdellà. Direct flights from across Europe (London 2h 15m, Paris 2h, Madrid 1h 15m, Barcelona 50m, Munich, Zurich, Berlin). Helicopter transfers from PMI to the estate helipad cost around €1,200 one-way.
